SBS call out for podcast pitches

SBS submissions are now open to the public to pitch podcast ideas that feature diverse Australian voices with original storytelling for multicultural, multilingual and First Nations audiences.

Last year’s call out generated 175 pitches nationally, leading to eight pilot episodes and six commissioned projects including BLA.C.K. Medicine, SEEN, and The Idiom. SBS has more than 6 million streams and downloads each month.

SBS Digital Audio and Podcast Manager, Caroline Gates said:

“It’s been exciting to see these commissioned projects reach new audiences for SBS and many have gone on to win industry awards, so it’s an excellent opportunity for both established and emerging podcasters to turn a great idea into a great podcast with the support of SBS Audio.”

Submissions close on Monday 31 July and must be made through the online form on the SBS website.
